Following these data, the Alps as a whole, and the Eastem Alps in particular, are the result of two independent Alpidic collisional orogens: The Cretaceous orogeny fo rmed the present Austroalpine units sensu lato (including from fo otwall to hangingwall the Austroalpine s. str. unit, the Meliata-Hallstatt units, and the Upper Juvavic units), the Eocene-Oligocene orogeny resulted from continent­ continent collision and overriding of the stable European continental lithosphere by the Austroalpine continental microplate. Consequently, a fundamental difference in present-day structure of the Eastem and Centrai/Westem Alps resulted. Exhumation of metamorphic crust fo rmed during Cretaceous and Tertiary orogenies resulted from several processes including subvertical extrusion due to lithospheric indentation, tectonic unroofing and erosional denudation. Original paleogeographic relationships were destroyed and veiled by late Cretaceous sinistral shear, and Oligocene-Miocene sinistral wrenching within Austroalpine units, and subsequent eastward lateral escape of units exposed within the centrat axis of the Alps along the Periadriatic fault system due to the indentation ofthe rigid Southalpine indenter.

The deforma­ tional history of the Triassic south of the Inn Valley is characterised by six stages: (1) Thinning by top SE extension during Jurassic continental breakup, (2) stacking of thinned slices by top NW thrusting during the time of peak tem­ perature metamorphism at 140 Ma (Early Cretaceous), (3) postmetamorphic top SE extension (Late Cretaceous) con­ temporaneously with Gosau sedimentation on top of the nappe pile of the Northern Calcareous Alps and (4) a long period of N-S compression (Eocene), resulting in northvergent thrusting and folding with development of a foliation , southvergent thrusting and, finally, overturning of the strata In the western part of the investigated area.

The Mora- vo–Moldanubian Phase involved the overthrusting of the Moldanubian over the Moravian Zone, a process which may have followed the subduction of an intervening oceanic domain (a part of the Rheiic Ocean) beneath a Moldanubian (Armorican) active continental margin. The Moravo–Moldanubian Phase also involved the exhumation of the HP–HT rocks of the Gföhl Unit into the Moldanubian middle crust, represented by the Monotonous and Variegated series. The tectonic emplacement of the HP–HT rocks was accompanied by intrusions of distinct magnesio-potassic granitoid melts (the 335–338 Ma old Durbachite plutons), which contain components from a strongly enriched lithospheric mantle source. Two parallel belts of HP–HT rocks associated with Durbachite intrusions can be distinguished, a western one at the Teplá–Barrandian and an eastern one close to the Moravian boundary.

  • Trans-Lithospheric Diapirism Explains the Presence of Ultra-High Pressure
    ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1038/s43247-021-00122-w OPEN Trans-lithospheric diapirism explains the presence of ultra-high pressure rocks in the European Variscides ✉ Petra Maierová1 , Karel Schulmann1,2, Pavla Štípská1,2, Taras Gerya 3 & Ondrej Lexa 4 The classical concept of collisional orogens suggests that mountain belts form as a crustal wedge between the downgoing and overriding plates. However, this orogenic style is not compatible with the presence of (ultra-)high pressure crustal and mantle rocks far from the plate interface in the Bohemian Massif of Central Europe. Here we use a comparison between geological observations and thermo-mechanical numerical models to explain their formation. 1234567890():,; We suggest that continental crust was first deeply subducted, then flowed laterally under- neath the lithosphere and eventually rose in the form of large partially molten trans- lithospheric diapirs. We further show that trans-lithospheric diapirism produces a specific rock association of (ultra-)high pressure crustal and mantle rocks and ultra-potassic magmas that alternates with the less metamorphosed rocks of the upper plate. Similar rock asso- ciations have been described in other convergent zones, both modern and ancient. We speculate that trans-lithospheric diapirism could be a common process. 1 Center for Lithospheric Research, Czech Geological Survey, Prague 1, Czech Republic. 2 EOST, Institute de Physique de Globe, Université de Strasbourg, Strasbourg, France. 3 Institute of Geophysics, Department of Earth Science, ETH-Zurich,

  • Mapping a Hidden Terrane Boundary in the Mantle Lithosphere with Lamprophyres
    ARTICLE DOI: 10.1038/s41467-018-06253-7 OPEN Mapping a hidden terrane boundary in the mantle lithosphere with lamprophyres Arjan H. Dijkstra 1 & Callum Hatch1,2 Lamprophyres represent hydrous alkaline mantle melts that are a unique source of information about the composition of continental lithosphere. Throughout southwest Britain, post-Variscan lamprophyres are (ultra)potassic with strong incompatible element enrich- 1234567890():,; ments. Here we show that they form two distinct groups in terms of their Sr and Nd isotopic compositions, occurring on either side of a postulated, hitherto unrecognized terrane boundary. Lamprophyres emplaced north of the boundary fall on the mantle array with εNd −1 to +1.6. Those south of the boundary are enriched in radiogenic Sr, have initial εNd values of −0.3 to −3.5, and are isotopically indistinguishable from similar-aged lamprophyres in Armorican massifs in Europe. We conclude that an Armorican terrane was juxtaposed against Avalonia well before the closure of the Variscan oceans and the formation of Pangea. The giant Cornubian Tin-Tungsten Ore Province and associated batholith can be accounted for by the fertility of Armorican lower crust and mantle lithosphere. 1 School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, Plymouth University, Plymouth PL4 8AA, UK. 2 Department of Core Research Laboratories, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, SW7 5BD UK.

  • Connecting Quartz Fluid Inclusion, Fissure Monazite Age, and Fissure
    Gnos et al. Swiss J Geosci (2021) 114:14 https://doi.org/10.1186/s00015-021-00391-9 Swiss Journal of Geosciences ORIGINAL PAPER Open Access Episodes of fssure formation in the Alps: connecting quartz fuid inclusion, fssure monazite age, and fssure orientation data Edwin Gnos1* , Josef Mullis2, Emmanuelle Ricchi3, Christian A. Bergemann4, Emilie Janots5 and Alfons Berger6 Abstract Fluid assisted Alpine fssure-vein and cleft formation starts at prograde, peak or retrograde metamorphic conditions of 450–550 °C and 0.3–0.6 GPa and below, commonly at conditions of ductile to brittle rock deformation. Early-formed fssures become overprinted by subsequent deformation, locally leading to a reorientation. Deformation that follows fssure formation initiates a cycle of dissolution, dissolution/reprecipitation or new growth of fssure minerals enclos- ing fuid inclusions. Although fssures in upper greenschist and amphibolite facies rocks predominantly form under retrograde metamorphic conditions, this work confrms that the carbon dioxide fuid zone correlates with regions of highest grade Alpine metamorphism, suggesting carbon dioxide production by prograde devolatilization reac- tions and rock-bufering of the fssure-flling fuid. For this reason, fuid composition zones systematically change in metamorphosed and exhumed nappe stacks from diagenetic to amphibolite facies metamorphic rocks from saline fuids dominated by higher hydrocarbons, methane, water and carbon dioxide. Open fssures are in most cases oriented roughly perpendicular to the foliation and lineation of the host rock. The type of fuid constrains the habit of the very frequently crystallizing quartz crystals. Open fssures also form in association with more localized strike-slip faults and are oriented perpendicular to the faults.

However, they do indicate without doubt that the resources remaining to be discovered are so located that detection will be difficult. The most promising areas of investigation in our opinion are the Old Red Sandstones of the Devonian period on the one hand and the districts where the uraniferous black shales of the Cambro-Ordovician and Namurian have suffered perturbations which may have led to immobili- zation of their uranium content (in particular, granitizations)« All the considerations put forward in this analysis lead us to place the United Kingdom in category 4 of the classification adopted for IUHEP.
